It is something that helps identify who we are and it is a big part of our culture.

(This is Celia Cruz btw, she's a big deal to us)]]> 2018-02-15 03:22:33 UTC https://padlet.com/danielalopezn/95q4u80pizuh/wish/231778046 danielalopezn https://padlet.com/danielalopezn/95q4u80pizuh/wish/231780012 You know that Maybelline commercial? "Maybe she's born with it."? Well I was born with music. The first toy I received from my parents was actually a toy piano. How ironic that I can only play Mary Had a Little Lamb and Fur Elise. But I made up for that by learning how to play the violin and cello.
I have always been interested in music and I have alway wanted to be the best at it. In elementary school when we learned how to play the recorder, I went out of my way to make sure that I could play it better than anyone in my class. I succeeded, but I digress. 
I have always had a special connection with music, and even though I am not majoring in it (I have decided that my calling in life is medicine), I still find ways to stay connected.]]> 2018-02-15 03:40:49 UTC https://padlet.com/danielalopezn/95q4u80pizuh/wish/231780012 danielalopezn https://padlet.com/danielalopezn/95q4u80pizuh/wish/231780994 I may not be playing music, but here I am performing a ballet routine. Music is not only auditory, but also a physical thing you can feel. And I express that through dance.]]> 2018-02-15 03:49:50 UTC https://padlet.com/danielalopezn/95q4u80pizuh/wish/231780994 danielalopezn https://padlet.com/danielalopezn/95q4u80pizuh/wish/231784227 This is a screenshot of an old video of me singing. ]]> 2018-02-15 04:23:33 UTC https://padlet.com/danielalopezn/95q4u80pizuh/wish/231784227 danielalopezn https://padlet.com/danielalopezn/95q4u80pizuh/wish/231784902 2018-02-15 04:31:27 UTC https://padlet.com/danielalopezn/95q4u80pizuh/wish/231784902 danielalopezn https://padlet.com/danielalopezn/95q4u80pizuh/wish/231785656 Participatory music is not for listening apart from doing; presentational music is prepared by musicians for others to listen to [...]" (Turino 52).
